Wisdom from The Fairies and Me

The word “apocalypse” does not mean the end of the world. The true definition, from its Greek counterpart, is something that has been hidden being revealed. It means a revelation of truth. We are definitely in those times. Those end times. The times when that which has been hidden is being; revealed, underlined, highlighted and marked with a star. Denial is no longer an option. Some people need to leave this planet or this reality to join with the truth. Some people just need to face it and acknowledge it. It seems to me that the keys to our expansion are being handed to us right now. I had a BIG revelation this last weekend as did several of my friends and family. The ideas, relationships, feelings, etc., that had been the proverbial brick wall that we were banging our heads against suddenly became very clear. Instead of beating our brains against it, we were able to step back and look at clearly, as if for the first time. Sometimes clarity can be like a gentle sigh of relief that allows the ropes tied around you to fall away and at others it is the white hot intensity of a million suns melting away the chains you have bound yourself in. Either way the clarity sets you free. It allows you to see where you have punished yourself, shamed yourself, and blamed yourself (or those around you, or the universe). The clarity can feel like it is about other people, events of the past, or the situation we are in, but it is really about how we have lied to ourselves.

The last three months I had been in what felt like a downward spiral. I had lost confidence in myself and my abilities. I had doubt about what I had been doing or where I was “going” in life. I told my husband that I felt like I had spent the last 20 years building Stonehenge by myself. I had been carrying these huge blocks to the right place, carving them, and shaping them and setting them. People would come by and look in awe and say, “Wow that is really amazing. You are doing something really profound.” and then they walk away. I was thinking why the FUCK am I doing this! Is this really doing anything for anybody? More importantly is this really doing anything for me but causing me pain and wearing me out? We all have these dark moments when we need to question what and why we do what we do. It led me to a big “A Ha!” that was actually a few “aha”s put together. The core of it is this. We are magic. I am magic. You are magic. We have to face our denial and fears so we can let them go and focus back on the magic of who we are. I kept trying to protect those I love from the world. If you asked me I would tell you that I felt safe and on a certain level that was true. I as a singular person felt safe and trusted the Universe to take care of me. I did not trust that those I love would be safe. Some how they needed me to protect them. How arrogant am I? I was interfering with other people’s paths for what I thought was best for them. I thought that I had to take care of them because I couldn’t trust that they were safe in the world. This includes various family members, friends, my husband, and my children. When I clearly got it I saw why I felt so alone. I had not let others in to help. I also had not given myself the space to fall deeper into my “work” by distracting myself with taking care of everyone else. The reason I was losing confidence was because I let others set my standards of success. Also I had ideas about what results I should be getting or how others should be “healing” from my actions with them and it was not manifesting that way. We manifest from what we need. I needed to see how I was interfering with others’ paths to avoid mine.

As we see all that is being revealed, be it personal or global, I hope your clarity feels more like a sigh of relief and you are able to celebrate your new freedom. For inspiration I suggest listening to “I’m Free” by The Soupdragons.

I was recently in Colorado while wild fires were growing across the state. I have met many who are affected by the damage these fires are causing. Story after story is being posted about towns being evacuated and families losing their homes and all their belongings. It was brought to my attention that I needed to get a message from the Fairies about this situation. Afterward I realized that their message pertained to the proverbial fires burning in our lives. I feel that many of us have been experiencing our own trial by fire. It is important to remember that fire is a transformative energy. There are times when we need the intensity of fire to clear away the old and allow us to move forward. Let yourself experience you own Phoenix shift. Remember that this includes time to grieve the loss of that which has past, and rest before you take flight. Here is the message from the Phoenix Fairy.

“The Phoenix dance can be difficult for Humanity. A raging fire is not out of control, just out of your control. The Phoenix dance is one of change and surrender. You must accept the powers that are greater then your consciousness, are doing what is for the highest and best, and trust you are being moved to a better situation, because you were a part of this decision too. Transition can feel chaotic and wrong but it is just the time between. You were settled into an old way and you will settle into a new way but in the transition you cannot settle. This clearing of the old will not last forever. Trust in the Divine timing of it all. For those in Colorado, remember that this is a co-creation. The Earth, the land, the plants, the animals (including Humans) were all involved with this creation. There are many beings, from Fairy and other Realms, helping with this transition. Call on them to help with your needs and ask for guidance.” ~ The Phoenix Fairy

I have been determined to create an oracle deck for ten years now. In fact my first book, The Expanded Gateway: Messages to Expand Your Consciousness, started out that way. It is something that has sat in the back of my mind for ages waiting to be birthed. In September of 2011 I got a very strong message that it was time. I had decided to create professional manuals and have them printed for all of my workshops. In my Fairy Connections Workshop I have the attendees pick a Fairy themed oracle deck, from the pile I own, and practice using these as tools to connect to their own Fairies to get information. I knew that I needed to create my own deck for this exercise that people could take home with them. The Fairies were practically screaming at me that I needed to do this. I actually “tuned in” and went into conversation with them. My downfall is I am stubborn and like to think that I know better about my own life then The Fairies.

I sat them down and told them “I do not have the strength to go through this process again. I do not know where to begin to create the deck and I do not think I could put the time and energy into creating the graphics for each card with everything else on my plate. If you want me to do this deck you better bring me an easy way to make them and an artist willing to be paid later.”

The Fairies simply smiled at me and said “okay”
I then became concerned because I realized that, once again, I had agreed to go kicking and screaming down my path.
Over the next couple months I discovered a POD (Print On Demand) site that was created for making card and board games. Many people had started using it for oracle and tarot decks; so much so that they designed templates specifically for this. Okay the first hurdle cleared. I could make this deck. I was still worried about finding images. The Fairies told me not to worry about that and to start gathering their words for the messages for each card. I asked how they wanted me to do this. Their answer was to scour the daily Fairy Wisdoms I had been posting on Twitter and Facebook for the last couple years and pick the ones that felt right. I thought “Well that will keep me busy for awhile. I guess I don’t need the images yet.”

Then in December my mother had a ThetaHealing Workshop. A woman named Ann who had been a client of my mother’s, and mine, for years had decided to audit the class. At the end of the workshop she gifted small paintings to everyone in the workshop. The day after the workshop I went to my mother’s office and she showed me the painting.

“Ann paints?” I asked
”Well she wants to, but these came from a dear friend of hers who has passed. She had collected like 200 or something before she passed. Ann just loved them.” My mother explained

I instantly got tingly all over. “I think these are the images for my deck!”
I contacted Ann and asked if she would be willing to let me digitize some of the paintings and use them in my deck. She would get a percentage of the profits of course. Ann was overjoyed. She told me that she had prayed for a way to get these images out into the public about the same times I was praying for images. She then told me the story of the artist.

Florence Sibley painted for years. She would channel Archangel Gabriel and paint. Florence was like a sister to Ann. They both were very spiritual and supported each other spiritually. Florence’s passing was a deep sorrow to Ann and she had let the paintings sit for a long time because it was hard for her to think about letting them go or releasing them. Now she knew it was time and wanted to share the beauty that Florence created with the world.

I knew that these were the images I had been looking for so we agreed to meet in January after the holidays. It took multiples meetings with Ann covering her kitchen table and surrounding area with all the different paintings. Some of the paintings were large enough to hang in a gallery and some the size of two postage stamps. All of the paintings had an aspect of nature but I was most drawn to the ones with winged and energy beings in them. I just picked the ones I liked, was drawn to, and/or felt right.

Then came the day I had to start designing the cards. I felt overwhelmed by the amount of images and messages I had. After looking at specifications on the POD site, and conferring with the Fairies, I discovered I needed to make a 71 card deck. I decided to number the messages and then use the image that matched it the best. I was amazed at how well the messages and the images went together. It was like watching long lost puzzle pieces clicking into place. I also was surprised at how tiring the experience was. That was when I realized The Fairies were encoding each card with energy. They gave me techniques to allow this to happen easier and not be so draining on me.

Now I am here. The day I get to start pre-order. I am so excited to share this magical deck with everyone. It has been an amazing experience and I know the journey of this deck has just started.

On May 20th, 2012 there will be a full solar eclipse that will be in alignment with Pleiades, a new moon, and the sun will be shifting from Taurus to Gemini. On June 5th and 6th Venus will be transiting the sun. It seemed we are stepping into another time of the energy peaking in intensity. I decided it was time to get a message from The Fairies and some guidance for this time.
Once I tune in she comes blazing forward looking part phoenix, part human, and part Djinn. Every part of her is fire and light. She comes from the sun and rides on streams of light. She speaks
“I am the Fairy of the eclipse you are wishing to speak about. You can call me Solari.” she says to me.
“Are you the only Fairy that is working with the eclipse?” I ask
“No, but I am one of a few that are completely embodying this energy.”
“Oh, I see. What can you tell me about the energy of this eclipse?”
“This eclipse is a powerful one for Humanity. It is a gateway point on many levels. The main theme is limitless potential. Choose to unlock all your potential and see the possibilities. Expand the vision of who you are, what you do, who others are, what your world is, and how your life is forming. What ever you need will be supplied. What ever you wish can be granted but only if it is from your pure self, what is often referred to as your higher self.”
“Can you explain more about this being a gateway point? For what and who?”
“It will be a time that ideas, beings, and projects will be birthed. It is also a time when beings, relationships, and old ways of being need to pass. These things can happen at any time, but this day, and the week on either side, will feel like waves of shifting washing around you. Some will feel this as chaos; others will find a lot of peace. It will be a time when feelings, events, and circumstances swing from one extreme to another. We suggest that you make choices that support who you are and who you are becoming, take action on things you have been waiting on, and express yourself honestly otherwise you may feel “forced” to. This is a great time for risks and not a time to sit and examine. No matter how you experience these couple of weeks the other side will be lighter and more playful. The energy of Venus interacting with the sun will shower the Earth with the happy waters it will need to feed all that came through the gateway.”
“This sounds intense. Do you have any suggestions for those of us who already feel tired from their extreme experiences of 2012?”
“Yes. Remember that you are not alone. This does not have to feel like more work but can be more freedom. There are many in your realm and our realm ready to help. Ask for help. Open to receive help. Allow the change instead of feeling like you have to make it happen. It is happening no matter what you do.”
“That does help”
“This is more of a shift of awareness then of action. It will make events happen. You cannot help that. When Humanity shifts its awareness then their reality shifts accordingly. When the mass consciousness shifts on a large scale, all of reality must align itself. This eclipse is an expansion of the mass consciousness of Humanity. Reality will mirror this to you.”
“Any last bits of advice?”
“Yes. Relax. Breathe. Trust. Soak up the sun.”
I smile, give thanks, and come back.

2012 has been intense for me personally and I know I am not the only one who is feeling it. Recently I had a session with a good friend and great healer/channeler Robin Linke of Balanced Healing Arts. She reminded me of something the Fairies have told me many times. When we are in stress, fear, and anxiety we are out of alignment. She then went on to give me an exercise that helped me shift. I have been doing this often everyday since our session. I have found even though I will shift a negative thought to a positive or stop a negative thought I still hold the feeling. I did not realize how often I was sitting in stress and fear on a regular basis even though I had mentally shifted. I wanted to share this technique with all of you so that you might find relief from some of the stress.
First you need to identify a feeling of being in alignment. For me it was feeling my purpose here on the Earth. Even if all you can connect with is how it feels to hug a good friend, or pet your cat, that is fine. You are looking for a feeling of peace that is easy to access. Whenever you start feeling the fear, or stress, or anxiety, you need to first stop the thought. Do not let your mind create those situations. Next bring yourself into that feeling of alignment and allow the energy to dissipate. This is important. You do not want to suppress the feeling. You want the Divine alignment energy to dissolve the feeling. Hold your focus there as long as you need to. I sometimes start this process and then check back in with my feelings and see how it has shifted a bit later. That is it. We simply have to remind ourselves to connect to the Divine on a regular basis. I hope that this will help bring in some peace for many of you. Once we are in alignment it is much easier to flow with our day moment to moment.
